HR 238 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution to declare February 2026 as Career and Technical Education Month in the state of Michigan.

This resolution designates February 2026 as Career and Technical Education (CTE) Month in Michigan. It symbolically recognizes CTE's role in preparing students for high-demand, high-wage careers (like healthcare, IT, and skilled trades) without creating new laws or funding. The resolution urges continued awareness of CTE programs, which support over 115,000 Michigan high school students annually and align with projected job openings requiring postsecondary training. As a procedural resolution, it has no binding requirements and serves only to raise public awareness.
